Red Hat 7.2 installation help! I have JRE 1.3.1_03 on my system and when I try to install Lime Wire I getting the following Error: Unrecognized JVM specific option..... Any help would be greatly appreciated. |
I have a fresh install of Red Hat 7.2 myself, and have installed the proper jre, followed all of the install instructions, and read all FAQs. I still have the same problem that you are having, and have finally given up. I installed Qtella, and it went smooth as could be. |
Interesting, i also have RedHat 7.2 and have this problem too. I think this must be an inherent problem with LimeWires Linux installer. |
oh yeh. btw, i tried it with the 1.3 AND the 1.4 versions of the jre, and it gave those errors |
Did You Try This? place this command into your .bashrc or .bash_profile file: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/ export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/jre/bin:$PATH That might help. It didn't work for me but maybe because I'm using blackdown instead of sun. HTH |
Another Level I will take it to another level. I am using Mandrake 8.2 with Java blackdown version: java version "1.3.1" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build Blackdown-1.3.1-02b-FCS) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build Blackdown-1.3.1_02b-FCS, mixed mode) I put where I downloaded my j2sdk1.3.1-02b-FCS: /usr/lib/j2sdk1.3.1 into my PATH in my .bash_profile: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/j2sdk1.3.1 export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH After doing that, I remove kaffe from my system but I have a dependency problem with my wizard packages. I do this command to keep that program around: rpm -e kaffe --nodeps This removes all instances of kaffe binaries from /usr/bin. I next create soft links to the /usr/bin directory but blackdown has most of all of it's java commands (ie java, javac, etc) as symbolic links. Some people´s configuration will not allow that many symlinks. the symlinks point to a "hidden" file called .java_wrapper. So I link this to my /usrbin directory like so: ln -s /usr/lib/j2sdk1.3.1/bin/.java_wrapper /usr/bin/java After doing that, I execute the LImeWireLinux.bin installer: ./LimeWireLinux.bin Installation works. Program installed, running, and functional. |
Red Hat Install Problems Like many here, I run Red Hat Linux 7.2, soon to be 7.3. Well, RH has a program installed called kaffe. What this is supposed to do is rearrange the byte order (or something like that) for java. Well, limewire doesn't like this very much and will thus give you a "Error: Unrecognized JVM specific option -Xx.....something something..." Well, like nDiScReEt said. Uninstall the kaffee program and set the java_home environment variable and add it to your path and you'll have limewire with no problems! So, in respect, thanks must go to nDiScReEt, all I've done is repeated what this person said. have fun |
Thank You The only reason that I know what worked for Linux Mandrake 8.2 will work with Red Hat 7.2 is because I run many linux distributions simultaneously on my one 60Gb harddrive. I have gentoo, mandrake 8.2, mandrake Cooker, and Linux From Scratch and all were solved with the above last mentioned method that I had posted. I hope the mileage is the same for all but not unexpected. I feel like a Starship Trooper in the Open Source community. I try to give back whenever and where ever I can.
